# Deploy Your First Smart Contract

Deploy and test your first smart contract on the LazAI Testnet.

This guide walks you through connecting to the network, setting up your environment, and deploying a sample contract using Hardhat, Foundry, or Remix.

### Overview

LazAI provides a developer-friendly Web3 environment for building AI-powered decentralized applications.

Each LazAI chain supports EVM-compatible contracts, so if you’ve deployed contracts on Ethereum, you’ll feel right at home.

LazAI provides an EVM-compatible environment for deploying and testing smart contracts.

If you have experience developing on Ethereum, you can use the same tools and workflows on LazAI.

### LazAI Network Information

Use these parameters to connect your wallet or development environment to the LazAI Testnet.

| **Chain ID**        | 133718                                                |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| **Currency Symbol** | LAZAI                                                 |
| **RPC**             | <https://testnet.lazai.network>                       |
| **Block Explorer**  | <https://testnet-explorer.lazai.network>              |
| **Faucet**          | [LazAI Testnet Faucet](https://faucet.lazai.network/) |

***

### Verifying Your Deployment

After deployment:

1. Copy the deployed contract address.
2. Open the [LazAI Testnet Explorer](https://testnet-explorer.lazai.network).
3. Paste the contract address to confirm deployment.
4. If needed, verify your source code through your chosen framework’s verification plugin or CLI command.

***

### Troubleshooting

RPC connection error

* Confirm your RPC URL and chain ID (133718).
* Retry with a clean browser session or different RPC endpoint if available.

Insufficient funds

* Request test tokens from the [LazAI Faucet](https://faucet.lazai.network/).

Contract verification issues

* Match your Solidity compiler version with the one specified in your configuration file.

***

### Next Steps

Continue with framework-specific deployment:

* [Deploy Using Hardhat ](/quickstart/deploy-your-first-smart-contract/deploy-with-hardhat.md)
* [Deploy Using Foundry ](/quickstart/deploy-your-first-smart-contract/deploy-with-foundry.md)
